Am I the only one who's become rather tired of the cheesy writing on CSIs NY and Miami?

I was an avid CSI fan and watched all three shows regularly.......but, When did the writers decide that all viewers were idiots needing everything over-explained with some nonsensical exposition...."What's up Eric?" "I'm waiting for a hit on the prints from the crime scene.""That'll link the suspect to the crime scene." ......no $HiT!It's like watching Ernie and Bert explain criminal science to 3rd graders!Miami is the worst by far, though. Horatio's campy remarks with the untimely repetition is so unnerving, I quit watching it all together.........while standing over the corpse, pulling off his shades and putting his hand on his hips, the camera wides out to....."Not for him, Frank, not for him."

The writing's gotten so bad that they make the actors look like hacks. Only a great actor like Gary Sinise can pull it off.

Seriously, watch an episode of Miami or NY and ignore:- all over-done exposition (stuff no two scientists would say to each other unless it was "bring your daughter to work day")- all repetition- all the overly righteous, indignant talk to suspects- and cheesy one-linersyou'd have an entire script consisting of little more than a few sentences and several approving grunts.

I think Horatio should quit his job and become a stripper. Skeebo would be his first customer!!!
